COMPARATIVE POLICY ANALYSIS: DESIGN OF PUBLIC POLICY RESEARCH
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
Comparative policy analysis (CPA) is regarded as an analysis tool for public policy mechanisms under the environmental differences of each country. Such differences result in the different achievements of policy implementation influencing the new findings, which are sufficiently reasonable to obliterate the former knowledge or further develop a new body of knowledge for replacement. This article’s purpose is to study CPA as modern research. The study consists of research design to cover the study areas, resource utilization, procedures, and data analysis methods, including reflection of findings resulting from the study's design in CPA through global case studies. The studies illustrated that the CPA was an advantaging technique capable of efficiently handling the study area with the capability of being applied with almost all public policy dimensions through systematical resource utilization and analytical procedures. Nevertheless, the CPA remains to encounter restrictions because the studies in policies relevant to societies with dynamic changes hinder the studies from considering social groups as the control or experimental groups.
